Manchester United’s transfer strategy has come under major scrutiny in recent years, with hundreds of millions wasted on players who simply failed to reach the desired standards.
The world-record (for a defender) £80million fee for Harry Maguire and the £86m spent on Brazilian flop Antony are just two of many transfers that didn’t live up to their billing. That raises the question of just how many top players the Red Devils could have brought in with those same funds.
Even captain and talisman Bruno Fernandes shares those frustrations, having been particularly vocal about missing out on one target – his Portugal team-mate and fellow midfielder Matheus Nunes in 2022.
